cane creek intergrated headset, (why did Giant use this design again?) installed it with dual crown shocks and i still have slop, i'll retry it later...

its a great design, i think you might be doing something wrong or something is broken/out of spec

A Rabbit is not to be wasted on the tentative or weak. Only the worthy are invited, and then only at your own risk. If you have even a modicum of hesitation, DO NOT buy one of these cars. Instead, leave it for a worthy soul who has already matriculated to the sublime ecstasy of what those in the know refer to as a "MK1"

Cleaned the Motobecane, and did some work to the Schwinn project bike:

From this a month or two ago(rode it as a fixie for about four months), to a state of disassembly. Today I got it to this point:

The brakes have new cables on them, the rear derailleur works really well, new handlebar wraps, seat height reset to go with the new longer crankarms, and yes those are Dura-Ace bar end shifters on a 30 year old Schwinn. They only cost like $50, and I couldn't resist! If I ever get another bike without integrated shifters I'll probably move to bar ends, the friction shifters are FANTASTIC. I'm in love

I can't get the front derailleur to pull quite right, the bike it came off of had a guide under the bottom bracket, this one doesn't. I got a clamp on cable-stop that I put on the seat tube. It looks like it should work but I seem to have adjusted it wrong. So I don't foul it up I'm taking it to my local shop on Monday(the Downtube in Albany, or CK Cycles over in Colonie. I haven't decided which yet as Downtube is walking distance, but pricier, and I know CK does good work, but I'd have to put the bike on the car to take it there and get back to school between classes).

replaced the rotors
replaced the brake pads
cleaned the frame
replaced the shift cables
replaced the brake cables... though ran into a snag with the end caps not fitting properly on the Jagwire Ripcord housing....
installed the SRAM X.7 shifters

I put my Look KEO classics on my Felt. Put the cleats on my new PI shoes... maybe tomorrow I will put it on the trainer and see if I can DIY the cleat adjustment or if I should just spring the $50 for the LBS to set them for me...

Found a Schwinn sprint in the trash Friday night, had no wheels, but did have front and rear derailleur, nasty ass rusted chain, seat post and saddle, handlebars, gear levers, fork, and brakes, stripped all the parts off it, and getting it ready for media blast and powder coat. Going to build it up as my bike to train in the park. Never ridden steel before, but it's a cool lugged steel frame, super excited for this build...

Well I started to move some to the new house. Also I put a saddle on the cross bike after I dropped them off. Now if we could finish the move so I could actually ride that would be nice.

I guess I follow rule #25
RULE 25:
The bikes on top of your car should be worth more than the car. Or at least be relatively more expensive. Basically, if you’re putting your Huffy on your Rolls, you’re in trouble, mister.

Swapped the wheels/tires out on my cross bike, swapped some parts on the singlespeed/fixed to get it ready to sell, and started building a dedicated steel touring bike. Can't wait to put some serious miles on these things!!!

Yeah, that's the prevailing thought around here as well. It may have to wait until we move in a few months though. It's either going to get Red/Black or I'm going to completely sellout to PoserWorld and slap Di2 on it!

Fitted a Garmin 500 over the weekend, a B'day present from my wife. She got the HR and Cadence sensors too but I haven't used them yet. I'm loving the 500 so far, I had heard only good things about it and I think it really helps keep my ADHD style mind happy while I'm out riding on my own.

I do have wayyy too many options on the screen though, I think I average 7 metrics per screen so they're all tiny..
